Expo Puts Area Businesses in the Spotlight

Land O’ Lakes residents who want to find out more about the businesses and organizations that serve the community will get their chance when the Business Expo comes to town March 9-10.

The annual event serves as a showcase for businesses and organizations that serve the Central Pasco area. It takes place at the Land O’ Lakes Recreation Complex, 3032 Collier Parkway, and also features Taste of the Town, which enables expo-goers to sample fare from a wide selection of local eateries.

“Come out and shop local with approximately 85 local businesses who support the community we live in,” said chamber board member Charlene Ierna. “The event is free (for residents), open to the public and kid-friendly.”

While the expo is just around the corner, Ierna said there is still time for businesses to get involved. Anyone interested in obtaining booth space can contact the chamber office at 813-909-2722. Information is also available on the chamber’s website and in the PDF included with this article.

The expo takes place from 4 to 7 p.m. March 9 and from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. March 10. The Taste of the Town runs from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. March 10. Visitors are eligible to receive door prizes and other giveaways. Booth space costs $100 for chamber members.
